Join me in exploring the Christian Bible.
The Book of Daniel
At home we are working our way through the Book of Revelation. Daniel plays an important role in understanding the book the apostle John wrote centuries later.
You can read Daniel online at the Internet links below. You can also find translations in many other languages using the search option on "Bible Gateway." The ESV and some other translations offer audio readings of the text.
In this look at Daniel, I will include study notes from the Reformation Study Bible and the Archaeology Study Bible. Here and there I may add some observations and comments of my own. Perhaps I will also add a question or comment. You are welcome to join the discussion through messenger or any other social media channel.
